7 http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
9 http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
11 mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
12 device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
13 known as Software RAID arrays.
15 Release 2.3.1 primarily fixes a few compile problems with 2.3. Though
16 there are some functionality changes, they are extremely minor and you
17 probably won't notice them.
20 - Fixed -O2 compile so I could make and RPM.
21 - Type cast number to be printed %llu so it compiles on 64bit
22 machines. (Thanks Luca).
23 - Stop using asm/byteorder.h - to make Redhat happy :-(
24 - Require bitmap files to have a '/' in their name.
25 - Error-check a few syscalls - code from SuSE package.
27 Development of mdadm is sponsored by
28 SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
